Spanish term or phrase: combinaciones de líneas de colectivo
Hi everybody,

I need some help with the term "combinación de líneas" when providing information on public bus transportation in a town or city: how to get to places, bus stops, service numbers, etc. Are you familiar with an accurate term for this?

Thanks!
